Deuteronomy 29:18
Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the Lord our God to go and worship the gods of those nations. Make sure there is no root among you that bears such poisonous and bitter fruit,
Note See Hebrews 12:15
Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the Lord our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood;
Note gall: or, a poisonous herb: Heb. rosh
lest there should be among you man, woman, family, or tribe whose heart turns away today from the Lord our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be among you a root that produces bitter poison;
lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from Jehovah our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood;
